Increased annual methane uptake driven by warmer winters in an alpine meadow

Peiyan Wang et al.

Summary: Pronounced nongrowing season warming and changes in soil freeze-thaw cycles can significantly impact methane uptake in alpine ecosystems. The study found that warming increased the mean methane uptake rate during the cold season, with different effects under low-level and high-level warming. Moisture content and temperature were identified as key factors controlling methane uptake during different periods of the freeze-thaw cycle. Soil pH, available phosphorus, and methanotroph abundance were also found to play important roles in regulating annual methane uptake under warming conditions.

The land-to-ocean loops of the global carbon cycle

Pierre Regnier et al.

Summary: This study assesses the land-to-ocean cycling of carbon through inland waters, estuaries, tidal wetlands and continental shelf waters, and highlights the impact of neglecting these changing carbon fluxes on carbon storage estimates. Key knowledge gaps are identified for future assessments to reduce uncertainties in understanding the global carbon cycle.

Recovering wetland biogeomorphic feedbacks to restore the world's biotic carbon hotspots

Ralph J. M. Temmink et al.

Summary: Biogeomorphic wetlands, covering only 1% of Earth's surface, store 20% of ecosystem organic carbon. However, human activities are causing rapid declines in the area of these wetlands, emphasizing the need for conservation and restoration.

Warming and drought increase but wetness reduces the net sink of CH4 in alpine meadow on the Tibetan Plateau

Zhenhua Zhang et al.

Summary: Alpine meadows act as significant CH4 sinks, with warming increasing CH4 uptake significantly and drought enhancing this effect by decreasing soil water content. However, wetness weakens the warming effect on CH4 uptake. The study also found that warming stimulates CH4 uptake not only by increasing CH4 oxidation but also by changing the methanotroph community compositional structure.

Substantial decrease in CO2 emissions from Chinese inland waters due to global change

Lishan Ran et al.

Summary: The study reveals a significant decrease in CO2 emissions from Chinese inland waters over the past few decades, mainly influenced by environmental changes and reforestation programs. Meanwhile, CO2 emissions from inland waters in the Tibetan Plateau show an increasing trend, likely due to increased terrestrial deliveries of organic carbon and climate change.
